Abstract

Clozapine (CLZ) is the most effective antipsychotic medication for schizophrenia and the only one whose efficacy can be predicted by a blood test. However, it is underutilized due to adverse side effects and burdensome treatment monitoring scheme. Here, we present the development of an electrochemical microsystem based on a microelectrode modified with reduced graphene oxide to enable minimally invasive, real-time and in situ monitoring of CLZ levels in a finger-pricked volume sample of undiluted serum. The outcome of this work will facilitate the development of miniaturized and wearable analytical devices, and will enable personalized schizophrenia treatment management.
